Pope Valley Winery

17 Best Wineries for Picnics in Napa and Sonoma - Eater SF

"The 1887 Pope Valley Winery is one of the last remaining examples of what people refer to as “Old Napa.” It’s a bit of a drive up windy, scenic roads, but the reward is a quiet and unpretentious country paradise. Free from crowds, traffic, and fuss, you’ll want to hang around ‘til closing time. Snag a picnic table (reservations available, but not required) somewhere in between the estate vineyards and the bocce court, unpack your picnic goodies, and sip an array of wines ranging from sangiovese to an old vine chenin blanc, which is nearly impossible to find in Napa Valley these days." - Jess Lander, A.
